Pretty much any geek-culture subject created over the years has to through a few stages of alternative creative changes, at least when it comes to fan art. One of the important ones? Turning characters into hipsters.
Hipster Mario
It’s hard to think of someone so Hipster actually caring about a princess in a castle.
Hipster Luigi
Apparently, just walks around and tapes Mario trying to overcome the hazards.
Hipster Bowser
Redheads with sunglasses and cell-phones are always the bad guy.
Hipster Toad
Checking Mario’s Instagram to see how far he’s advanced.
Hipster Princess
Vegan cakes aren’t worth the bother… Hipster princesses usually are.
